Breaking the World by Jerry Gordon

5.0

"The world doesn't end with the apocalypse, Cyrus. It just changes."

Breaking the World was a lot of fun - it's a horror retelling of the Waco siege, and it was a pretty unique idea. If you enjoyed the concept of something like the The Hunger (historical fiction with a horror twist), you may be interested in this book.

The first half of this story starts with the botched raid, and then continues on with the Waco story from there. It always makes me sad when I hear this story, and Jerry Gordon did a good job of telling it. This book still would have been excellent with or without the supernatural element.

The ending was left fairly open-ended, so I am hoping this is going to become a series. It was an enjoyable read, and I'm looking forward to more from Jerry Gordon. I recommend checking this one out!
